The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important condition to address in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will often lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases rather simply.

Take note however that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir placed at the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Lancashire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

This was most definitely the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and nobody was stirring. It was fairly uneventful so far, and John and I were relaxing browsing several old magazines. That was an unusual calm hour in Lancashire. Actually it was so relaxing that the moment the phone eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The customer on the phone stated: "I only just ended my night shift and incredibly put petrol in my cream Ford Ranger". I told him to inform us exactly where he was and we headed out, reaching him in Penwortham Lane not as much as half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the car. He thanked us for coming so quickly. As we were coming back to base we found two young women on the edge of the road who seemed like they had a puncture.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VA receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
